Cool

Make very good mental notes of how you get the stock RSB off the car. New one goes on the exact opposite way. On mine the whiteline RSB is so much stiffer the problem I had was once I got it in place, getting the new end-links on. You can't bend the bar easy like the stock one to line them up.
Eventually I think I took a jack and a block of wood and just jacked the damn end of the RSB up high enough for the end-link to slide right in!



If you didn't get new endlinks with it, you need to clean your stock ones up very well. (penitrating oil) You don't want any rust on them. Either new, or old end links. They're tricky to tighten enough so that they don't thread themselves back off. They will do that.




You need to use some thread locker on them to keep them still. A lot of times the nut that holds the RSB to the end link will back itself off and the RSB won't be connected to anything.

i've done a similar search: people here seem to really love CTMotorsport, so i'm finally going to bite the bullet and buy an RSB from them as well for my 93 5s-fe. within those searches, i've not found anything on install tips.

good luck!

you may as well splurge a bit more and see if you can pick up a TRD one for the gen4....fits the gen 3s with new bushings and is a lot stiffer

Cool

I don't love them.

But without contacting the major US distributor, you're not going to find anywhere else selling them anytime soon.

witch is like stock then whiteline lol all it can be is the bushings? right so i mean whiteline said they maxed the sway bar for the best ride and cornering.... so i mean its kinda pointless to have 2 settings....its sucks to RSB's on anyways why would you want to change it lol? kinda pointless if you ask me

^ you make no sense, man....


but the trd track setting is stiffer than the whiteline bar, and not quite so comfortable...so it makes sense to have a street setting if you want a less harsh ride....which is still better than stock and probably about the same as the whiteline ride
